Former Clinton friend and advisor, Dick Morris suggested in February 2018 that the Steele dossier might have been made up by the Clintons and that Steele was only used to provide it some credibility:

“The reason Hillary hired Fusion [GPS] is because she needed someone more credible than Sidney Blumenthal and Cody Shearer to float these charges,” Morris alleges.

Just as the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee used intermediaries in financing the Steele dossier to keep its fingerprints off a document styled as intelligence and not opposition research, Shearer allegedly used the tactic of laundering to ensure that his information looked as though coming from a clean source rather than a political dirty trickster.

In late September 2016, Sidney Blumenthal, a close Clinton confidant and colleague of Shearer’s, passed Shearer’s dossier on to State Department official Jonathan M. Winer, a longtime aide to John Kerry on Capitol Hill and at Foggy Bottom.

According to Winer’s account in a Feb. 8, 2018 Washington Post op-ed, he shared the contents of the Shearer dossier with the author of the first dossier, ex-British spy Christopher Steele, who submitted part of it to the FBI to further substantiate his own investigation into the Trump campaign.

Stu Evans was in charge of handling FISA applications for the Justice Department [source]. Apparently, Evans was so concerned about the Carter Page FISA warrant issue that Evans’ boss had to intervene and put the squeeze on Evans to go forward with this:

Lisa Page: “I communicated you [Strzok] and boss’s [McCabe] green light to Stu earlier, and just sent an email to Stu asking where things stood. This might take a high-level push,” she wrote [source].

The dossier was a sham and the FBI knew it. They fought over using it. Ultimately it was used as a means to obtain a warrant to spy on candidate and President Trump in the greatest acts of corruption in US history.

It looks more and more like the entire Steele dossier was not only paid for by the Hillary campaign but may have been created by the Hillary campaign as well. The whole thing was a manufactured sham used by the Deep State to attempt a coup of the Trump administration.
